Topeng Monyet
Thousands of macaques are bred or captured from the wild to be used as street
performers, or known as “topeng monyet”. The macaques are used to perform street
shows; wearing funny masks, riding bicycles, performing acrobatic moves and doing
amusing things. However, such shows should be banned for few reasons.

First, topeng monyet is a kind of exploitation of monkeys for money. The monkeys are
hung from chains for long periods to train them to walk on their hind legs like humans.
Their teeth are extracted so they can’t bite and they are tortured to remain obedient. The
monkeys are often outfitted in dresses and cowboy hats and forced to carry parasols or
ride tiny bikes. This animal abuse will definitely hurt the monkeys.

Second, the ban of masked monkey show can help improve public order. Topeng
monyet is often performed when traffic is backed up at notoriously congested
intersections. This will disturb the sight and create traffic jams for many motorists or
pedestrians will slow down to watch the shows.

Third, banning the dancing monkeys is a necessary public health measure. It is

important to rescue the monkeys from street performances and help prevent diseases
carried by the monkeys.

The monkeys used in topeng monyet may not be healthy and may have potential to
some diseases such as tuberculosis and hepatitis.

Considering the reasons stated above, topeng monyet should be banned for it exploits
the monkeys, causes traffic jams and spreads illnesses such as tuberculosis and
hepatitis.

Vegetarians
There are many reasons why people become vegetarians, including personal health, the
environment, and the economy.

A vegetarian is a person who does not eat meat, poultry, and fish. Vegetarians mostly
eat fruit, vegetables, legumes, grains, seeds, and nuts. Vegetarians also consume eggs
and dairy products, but they avoid meat products, such as beef, chicken stocks, and
gelatin.
According to research, vegetarians have lower risk of heart disease, high cholesterol,
diabetes, obesity, and high blood pressure. This may happen due to a healthy
vegetarian diet, which has low fat but high fibre.

However, a vegetarian diet can be high in fat if it includes excessive amounts of fatty
snacks, fried food, whole dairy products, and eggs.

At the same time, a vegetarian diet can be simple and easy to prepare. Therefore, a
vegetarian diet must be well-planned to prevent and treat certain diseases.
